Beautiful journey, touching stories 美丽的历程,感人的故事


吉隆坡总教区华文教务促进会,于三月十五及十六日,假波德申金沙滩浸信会活动中心(浸会园)举办了2014年侯洗者灵修避静。

总教区属下各堂区120位华文慕道班侯洗者, 联同超过30位的陪团员及慕道班工作人员参与了这个活动。

这是慕道过程的重要环节。这避静让侯洗者回顾个人的慕道过程,被召叫的经历,在团体及祈祷的氛围中,体验基督透过教会,对每个人的慈爱及恩赐。它也给予侯洗者充分的准备,以领受在堂区里随着而来的各种礼仪,包括圣周及复活前夕的入门圣事。

导师王保禄神父在这两天一夜的避静中,以祈祷、默想、歌唱来引领侯洗者回顾自己的人生旅途经历,各种喜乐、悲伤、甜酸苦辣,来体验造物主的伟大和慈爱。

神父也阐述了天主教礼仪的美及生活性。耶稣基督透过圣事及礼仪,临在于祂的子民之中。

许多侯洗者,分享了他(她)们美丽动人的皈依故事。在欢笑、泪水中,道出了平凡的人生中,不平凡的故事。每人都以寻找到基督,而有了信仰,开始一个充满希望、喜乐、仁爱及平安的新生命而感到高兴与安慰。

祝愿这群侯洗者,在主内常常喜乐,以祈祷及赞颂,迎接他们将在复活前夕领受的入门圣事,成为天主的儿女、天主教会的兄弟姐妹成员。

Kuala Lumpur Archdiocesan Chinese Language Apostolate Commission (KL-ACLAC) had organised a Retreat for the Elect (Persons to be baptised) on 15-16/3 at the Golden Sands Baptists Center in Port Dickson.

About 120 elects and 30 RCIA team members and facilitators attended this event usually held  in the season of Lent.

The retreat was to enable the elects substantial time to themselves, to reflect on their lives and journey of meeting Christ, helping them to make the conversion complete in preparation of the coming Easter's eve Baptism.

Retreat master Rev. Fr. Paul Wong animated the retreat with prayer, meditation and songs. He also enlightened the participants of the beauty and meaning of Catholic liturgy and rites.

Towards the end of the retreat, many elects shared touching stories of their lives and the search for Christ.

May the elects be blessed with happiness and peace, in their preparation for the coming Easter's eve Baptism, a new life as children of God and members of the Catholic faith.
